Prompting is a very important technique used in teaching a child with autism. It is basically the assistance given to the child to learn some skills or to reach some educational goal.

There are many different types of prompts like verbal prompts, textual prompts, picture prompts, physical and gesture prompt etc.

At first, therapist should examine the kid properly and then determine which prompt will be useful for the child’s effective learning.

Prompting should be systematically faded and gradually led the child to complete the work independently. It should start from least restrictive form to most restrictive form.

Verbal prompt which is also known as phonemic prompt where teacher help the child by saying just first phoneme or the sound to extract the exact answer from the child. Again, textual prompt are like written words or instructions that are given to the child to complete the task. Physical prompt is where the therapist provide physical contact to the child to accomplish the goal.

One of the best ways to improve or build up vocabulary is to write or use one-word substitutes for the given phrase. It is very important to write precisely and speak in a single word. Like the word autobiography can be used in place of the sentence, "The Life History Of a Man Written By Himself". This not only makes the language easily comprehensible but also makes it beautiful.

The other way, we can say that these words are used to bring an effect of compression in any kind of writing, for example in business communication there are instances when we have to write a lot within the limitation of time and space, there this kind of words can prove quite handy.

In the English language, there are a lot of words for a group of words that can be used effectively to make the writing to the point that too without losing the meaning of the context.

As a Child Psychologist I have been very fortunate to have understood that no matter what special needs children have, they all have great potential. Every child is capable, talented and has the potential to blossom.

My work is as a specialist of child development, is more around families than the child. Its important to make the parents and families realise how blessed they are to have a child. Often I find parents confused as to what is the best way forward for their child. In this modern day its very vital for parents of both typical children and special children to take counselling from experts to deal with their child. So many times parents unintentionally create more harm than good to the child.

Do you know your child's real potential? Is math, science ans excelling in other subjects enough for there overall development?

Unfortunately for a common parent its enough. And they stop there even without discovering their child's true potential.

Whatever we have learnt, it is very important to produce in the exam, so that we can score the best scores/grades/marks.

1) Understand the concepts

2) Try to make some easy way to remember

For example: When you are learning Trigonometry,

In the below table, to remember first write the denominator as hypotenuse.

Then just write perpendicular in the numerator (in the first column i.e, Sin), then as base in the second one, I.e., cos. Finally in the tan first by second i.e, perpendicular/Base. So, we should try to have some clues so that we try to remember and do the sums with correct formulas

To start with, you may try to shorten the study duration, 20mins -half an hour. Rote learning can be a problem. Instead of asking him to pick a book and study right away, you may try to have a discussion about the chapter first. So whichever topic you want him to learn that day, have a discussion on it. Guide him through the topic by asking him simple questions and build the information on it. Then ask him to read the lesson. Since now he already has some knowledge about the lesson, he might find it easy to recollect while reading. read less
